Summary Hafeez smashing 10 boundaries and a six in his unbeaten 72.
ABU DHABI (AP) - Mohammad Hafeez hit another half century to stretch Pakistan s lead to 431 runs at lunch Wednesday on the fourth day of the first test against New Zealand.
Pakistan, which didn t enforce the follow-on and took a 304-run first-innings lead, looked for quick runs with Hafeez smashing 10 boundaries and a six in his unbeaten 72 as Pakistan reached 127-1 at the interval.
Younis Khan successfully used the DRS to overturn an lbw decision against him off legspinner Ish Sodhi s last ball before lunch. He was not out on 26.
Sodhi got the only breakthrough when he dismissed makeshift opener Azhar Ali (23), who was standing in for Ahmed Shezad. Shezad fractured his skull in the first innings and was ruled out of the remainder of the three-test series.
